Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while... I've been very busy hand sewing a dress for my cousins wedding next month..Yes, I own 3 sewing machines and still enjoy hand sewing more. I am making the underskirt out of a beautiful spring green colour jersey material, and did not realize how hard jersey would be to sew! I was just keeping comfort in mind -well, that, and I fell in love with the colour. Also, lots of pattern alteration was deemed necessary because the jersey fabric is so damn stretchy... Though comfortable as all get out, so I reckon it's worth the struggle. The over skirt will be made of a gorgeous sheer chocolate brown with gold Indian influenced borders. It was $25 a yard, so I am very hesitant about starting to sew that -especially without a pattern!
I miss my best sewing buddy in Las Vegas for this venture. Actually, she will be having her second son today so I want to say CONGRATS C & J!
Long story short: forgive me for slacking on posts. I will have to post my Pizzele adventures later... I LOVE these Italian cookies! I am lucky enough to have gotten a pizzele machine on loan, so I am in bliss :)
